Andy Ross spent fifteen years as a performance artist sharing the peace, love, and joy of God's being with audiences in Chicago, New York City, and Los Angeles. He then returned to North Carolina to dedicate himself to the study of spirituality. He received a BA in religious studies from North Carolina State University and an MA in contemporary spirituality from Loyola University Chicago. Ross works as a minister and hospital chaplain in North Carolina.
"""Andy Ross has a magical way of taking complex subjects and distilling them into thoughts, stories, and analogies that make them accessible to everyone. This is not to say that they are simplistic. No, the reader may have to read a sentence a time or two, but the grappling is fulfilling and takes the reader on a journey from their head to their heart, as they bring the newly acquired insights into their everyday lives."" --Dusty Rippelmeyer, spiritual director, Triangle Center for Spiritual Living"
